2013-12-18 If You Could Only Do One Exercise

Meet upstairs at 1610 hours

Warmup:

PVC Warmup
25 PVC OHS

then 10 minutes in the bottom of the squat.

WHAT? Really. 

                                              K-star's first ever Mobility WOD

Maybe the Turkish Get Up Is the Answer to "If You Could Only  Do One Exercise"

Then TGU technique work for 10 minutes:


If the movement is difficult for you, no weight or a PVC pipe.



Add weight and difficulty:


Heavier Kettlebell
Try a Dumbbell
Progress to an Olympic Bar
Add Weight to the Oly Bar


then for time:

21-15-9

TGU
KBS

Finally, there are still folks at CCSO that have not heard of CrossFit Indomitable and/or have never tried it.  There are plenty of WODs posted here and the gym is open 24 hours a day.  Grab one of those people after a shift or before a shift or on a day off and work out together or bring them to an organized workout.  If that sounds too scary, Julie over at CrossFit Timber (King/Linwood) will give a free month membership to any police officer and essentially all CrossFit boxes will give you a discount for being in law enforcement, fire, or the military.

Finally, for those that do not have a schedule or life that allows you to come in at 1610 or to work out at a commercial box, here is an article about CF on your own or with small groups.  It was great to see 4th shifter AJ working on OHS and back squat in the background as Sheriff Roberts talked about wellness at the SO.  That's the idea. We are forging warriors.  Please read on.

Sleep

Hopefully if you have interest in sleep you have already listened to the podcast that was linked here on 12-10-13.  Sleep is more critical to our health and long term success in law enforcement than even nutrition or exercise.  You need to get enough sleep.  It may be that you can hack our freaky schedules with some of the ideas from this info graphic:


If you have more info on sleep and how it relates to shift work, please share directly with one of the CrossFit coaches or send it to crossfitindomitable@gmail.com.
